Preparation

Marinate steak with 2 tablespoons oil, shallots, garlic, 1 tablespoon thyme and 1 rosemary sprig for at least 2 hours or over night in fridge. To cook bring grill to high heat then reduce to medium. Scrape marinade from flank steak and grill, about 9 minutes per side. Let rest 6 to 8 minutes. Thinly slice.

Heat oven to 350 ̊F. Toss potatoes with remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1 rosemary sprig and thyme sprig and place on baking sheet. Roast in oven approximately 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.

For hollandaise, in bowl over simmering water, whisk egg yolks and Champagne vinegar, if using. Turn off burner and continue whisking; eggs will get lighter in colour and will thicken slightly. Gradually add butter cubes, one at a time and continue to whisk until butter is incorporated and mixture has thickened. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, Tabasco, Worcestershire, salt, pepper and cream until well incorporated. Season to taste.

For eggs, fill large saucepan with water and vinegar. Bring to boil, and reduce heat to medium-low. Water should be simmering slightly. Crack one egg at a time in small bowl and slowly slide egg in water. Using large spoon, swirl in the water near the edge of pot to create a vortex so the egg curls into itself. Cook approximately 3 to 4 minutes for soft stage or until desired doneness. Remove with slotted spoon and dry on a paper towel.

Place potato wedges and steak slices inside crêpes and roll. Top with one poached egg, hollandaise sauce, salt and pepper, if desired.
